Risk management isn’t just for risk professionals, it’s something that affects every business and industry, whether you realise it or not. From healthcare to finance, construction to retail, every organisation faces uncertainties that could impact its success.

Risk management is simply the process of identifying potential problems before they happen and finding ways to prevent or minimise their impact. For example, a restaurant must manage food safety risks, a tech company must protect against cyber threats, and a manufacturer must ensure worker safety. Even individuals use risk management daily, like wearing a seatbelt, checking the weather before going out, or setting aside savings for unexpected expenses.

Understanding risk management helps businesses make smarter decisions, reduce losses, and create safer, more resilient workplaces. So, whether you work in operations, marketing, finance, or leadership, having a solid grasp of risk management makes a difference in everything you do.

Now, for the first time ever, the IRM is delivering its flagship Fundamentals of Risk Management (FoRM) training in person in Kuala Lumpur, a unique opportunity to gain expertise in a hands-on, interactive environment. Over 10,000 students worldwide from every major sector have completed this course.

 

This course provides a dynamic, interactive introduction to enterprise risk management, combining theory, case studies, and practical exercises aligned with ISO 31000 and industry best practices. By the end, you'll understand how effective risk management supports organisational success, with a final quiz to reinforce key concepts.
